"The car is working better than this morning. We made a few changes before qualifying that allowed us to pick up some more time. We lost some time during qualifying because of a problem with the butterfly system, but we're still looking pretty good. The car is definitely much quicker than last year!"

RICK GALLES - Team Owner, Galles Racing International

"Today really doesn't matter except that it was the first day of qualifying. We had some mechanical problems and we didn't get in a lot of laps, but we're still in the hunt. I think that if we can move up tomorrow we'll have a good shot at the race." -<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>--<o>- Lesley Ann Miller, President - Marketing 101 (614) 890-5442 fax: (614) 890-5083 mktg101@ee.net http://enet.colmicrosys.com/mktg101/index.html
